Sleepless . . . new adventures with Black Sequencer

Studio setup showing Eurorack Modular, Syntrxii and Blacck sequencer plus additional synths

More adventures with Erica Synths Black Sequencer indeed! This time been messing with Mannequins Mangrove Oscillator, Just Friends and Three Sisters filter – so, mostly modular – a lot of the usual suspects – AJH, Tip Top and of course Syntrx II – oh and there is a bit of Korg ARP2600 in there too! […]

The main sequences are going through the AJH V-Shape and out through NightVerb. The swirling pads are from Syntrx II and the […]

Even More SyntrxII + Nightverb

More Adventures with SyntrxII + Nightverb

Erica Synths SyntrxII

Having lots of fun with Erica Synths Nightverb which here I am using with my SyntrxII. Five tracks recorded into ProTools and just a little delay from the synth – no other fx. Been searching for the ultimate reverb for a while, in both hardware and software and I think that Nightverb might just be […]
